This is an easy to make, great-tasting and low fat coffee cake. I clipped it from my local newspaper. Ingredients:
1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided |
1 3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided |
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, divided |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, divided |
2 medium sweet apples |
2 cups buttermilk baking mix (such as bisquick) |
1 egg |
3/4 cup milk |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
2. In a measuring cup, combine 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoons nutmeg and 1/8 teaspoons cloves.
3. Halve and core apples; peel one of the halves and finely chop; thinly slice remaining 3 apple halves.
4. In a large bowl, combine baking mix, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, remaining 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg and remaining 1/8 teaspoons cloves.
5. In a small bowl, combine egg, milk and butter; stir into dry ingredients, beating until combined, about 30 seconds (batter will be lumpy).
6. Stir in the chopped apple; spread batter in prepared pan.
7. Arrange appple slices over batter, overlapping slightly.
8. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
9. Let cool on a wire rack.
10. Serve warm.
